“Hello, it was easy for me to find pre school academy for my daughter because they provided me with everything quickly thanks to all the teachers. My daughter learned very quickly. I am very grateful to all of them. I recommend them to other parents....”

“LOVE LOVE LOVE ? had wonderful staff and teachers my son has learned so much since enrolling. He loves going to school and comes home and talks about how amazing his day was. Would definitely recommend to parents who are thinking of enrolling their children. I am really saddened so hear they had some teacher layoffs teacher Julie and teacher Yolanda to be exact. Those two amazing women with teacher Miriam made my sons class fun and he enjoyed going to school he is saddened by the sudden change without warning I as a parent I am also saddened by this those ladies put there heart into teaching our children and were layed off without warning the parents had no warning no idea what is going on I think they could have handled the situation a little differently at least given the parents a chance to talk to our children about the change . The children see and look up to those lady’s everyday and all of a sudden they are gone is not right for them or us . Personally I would have liked to know so I could have thanked them ahead of time for treating my son with respect and making his first school experience amazing and one he would never forget codela you let two amazing women go and We need answers . BRING TEACHER JULIE AND TEACHER YOLANDA BACK!!”

“There is not enough space for me to write all the wonderful things I want to say. Both of my kids attended Creative. The entire staff is absolutely stellar. The director/teacher Ms. Denise is truly amazing and became someone my daughter admired and just loves so much. Even Ms. Sharon, Ms. Susan, Mr. Viet, Ms. Annie, Ms. Jackie, Ms. Vanessa and their chef Ms. Rosie are all absolutely wonderful. My daughter learned so much from every single one of them and every day she was always having fun while learning. They are always in constant communication with you and providing photos and daily updates so you feel confident your child is in a safe and happy environment. They teach your kids a wide variety of subjects from science, math, sight words, writing, singing/dancing, art, crafts, games and even cooking ...all in such a manner the kids enjoy doing it and there is no stress but instead they actually want to participate!! It's so amazing. The school always hosts family fun events for you to come see your child's progress in school. Summer time is so fun too as they have pony rides and magic shows and splash days etc! Also, the food they cook is so good my daughter always tells me she prefers Ms Rosie's food. LOL! My daughter was always so excited to wake up and go to school, and would come home talking about her day. We are so sad my youngest has just graduated from Creative, but are happy with how much progress she has made and know that she will do well in life because of them! We can't thank the staff enough for all they have taught our children and for all of the wonderful memories that we will cherish forever. Our family really misses the school already. Creative has really set the bar so high that I honestly don't think I will ever be pleased with any other school/staff!!”

“"Golden City C.D.C., Inc. holds a special place in my heart, as I attended the preschool as a child and now both my son and daughter are currently attending. The staff has always made us feel like family and we appreciate the level of care and attention they provide to each child.There have been times when life gets in the way and I am unable to take my son to school events or field trips, but the director has always gone above and beyond to ensure that he can still attend and not miss out on the fun.Overall, Golden City C.D.C., Inc. is a wonderful preschool with dedicated staff who truly care about the well-being and education of their students. I highly recommend this preschool to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their child to learn and grow."”

“Two of my kids came to this preschool prior to pandemic and after everything opened up again. This school has been very cautious with masking and keeping everything sanitized which is so important when it comes to small children. My kids love all the teachers here because they are very attentive and you can tell that they really enjoy what they do. The playground area is shaded and is big and spacious. The added bonus is that they also help with potty training.”

“Concordia School is a remarkable place to send children aged 2 to 5. Since my son joined the preschool program, we have been amazed by how his teachers embraced him with love and care, helping him become fluent in English and creative and social.Every morning, the teachers welcome students and families with smiles and ask how we are doing to express genuine interest in our well-being. Also, the teachers are open to discussing a child's worries or concerns and informing parents of any incidents or developments involving the child.Moreover, Concordia's outstanding curriculum prepares children to be ready for elementary school. We noticed that our son learns similarly to our daughter's kindergarten time. At the end of the year, the teachers designed each child's portfolio to showcase the child's progress and achievements.We are very grateful to send our son to Concordia before he turns kindergarten. We are looking forward to the summer programs and the following year! Hope my review helps parents decide to send their children to Concordia!”

“My son loves this place. He had Ms. Gaby, Ms. Alba and has Ms. Anita. The teachers are wonderful and I have seen him grow leaps and bounds here. He will be ready for preschool I’m sure. Love the events and the bilingual focus here. Also, it’s nice to know that if I have a baby, that baby can attend the same school which will minimize drop off/pick off time and stress.”

“Santa Fe kids company is such an amazing school. My daughter was so welcome by all the kids, teachers and staff are so friendly and kind. We can't wait for her to start in May”

“My daughter and son attended BCMA for over two years and they both had great experience and got warm care and love from all teachers. They always told me "I miss school" when I picked them up. They had good time with good friends. I could see how they spent time in the school via app. Not only enriched education (especially we could see their improvement of writing skill since 2 years old), but also gaining sociality with friends - plus teachers encouraged and helped my son's potty training so he could complete it before 3.5 years old.Teachers must have had hard work during covid pandemic, but they always welcomed students and provided with great program.My husband and I really really appreciate all teachers' contributions to our kids, and recommend this wonderful school.”

“Very nice teachers. Staff and director. The teacher trained my daughter how to pee in the toilet. But I just feel the school is too basic. Only worksheet with abc 123. No hands-on learning. My daughter needs more curriculum.They got a big yard and playground. Everyone was so nice there I highly recommend :)”

“Our son has a few special needs and we have always felt welcomed and he loves this school. From the first time we toured this school we felt the difference and he loves coming to school every day. We even tried to put him into a regular TK class but decided it was better to bring him here where the class size was smaller and he was happiest. thank you for taking great care of our boy.”

“Well, I like the school because of how attentive and friendly the teachers are to the students. I don't speak English so they try to talk to me in Spanish.⊂⁠(⁠◉⁠‿⁠◉⁠)⁠つ”

“I can't say enough about this lovely little school- our son loved it, we loved it. The social/emotional child led play based structure was exactly what our child needed after being inside for a year because of the pandemic. Gilbert and Wendy care enormously for the children, as do the other parents. It is extremely bittersweet to be moving on....If you haven't found your village yet, look no further!”

“We are so happy our 2-year-old daughter attends KinderCare in Downey. The teachers and admin team are so professional and friendly, and they have a very well-thought out curriculum. My daughter is learning something new every day, and I have seen her blossom in just the few weeks that she has attended. 100% recommended!”

“My husband and I love this school program. The staff is amazing with the kids they always make them feel welcomed and safe. Both my kids have gone to Kids First Learning Center and they have loved it so much, we are hoping our third baby on the way gets to go as well.”

“Wonderful daycare for our child who learned so much at this preschool. Curtis is very kind and patient, and seems to love all the kids. Staff seem well supported!”

“Our oldest is in his second year at All Children Great & Small. He is so excited to go to school every morning and keeps asking to go for more hours a week. He started as a 2 year old and he's grown so much since he started.The teachers have been there for well over a decade each, so there's no high turnover and my kid feels safe and secure there. This is a play-based progressive preschool, so the kids have a lot of fun and learn at their own pace. He's grown so much in terms of his social skills and at following directions. He also just loves the creative and art component of the school.We can't wait to send our youngest!”

“My family and my boy love this preschool. My son was a very shy and timid 4 yo boy when entering Little Sunshine a year ago (we kept him at home before that due to COVID). He was so shy and even afraid dealing with toddlers younger than himself at that time. Only after a few months, we saw tremedous changes in him, slowly he has turned into a confident and independent young boy. The teachers are very loving and caring, and yet are very firm when teaching the kids to obey rules. There were two events i remembered vividly, one was during the 2nd week my boy was crying non-stop (he was struggling to adapt to new environment), and teacher Vivian successfully helped him to transition himself to be ready in just a few days by showing him that he was no longer the younger boys that yell and cry like toddler because he can already use his words. Another event was my boy acccidently peed in his pant, and he wasn't ashamed or upset about it when i picked him up after school. This was surprising as he is a very sensitive boy. I believe this had to do with how the teachers have dealt with this incident, i.e. teachers must have been using very tender and kind words and ways rather than rebuking him. I think all the teachers are very loving, emphatehetic, patient and encouraging. The communication with class teacher and admin is excellent, and the pictures posted daily keep me informed (and entertained) of my son's progress and learning. The Mandarin and Spanich lessons are certainly bonus. My son comes home with big small smile on his face and also has been more well behaved and definitely more sociable since attending the preschool. I'm very happy with our decision to send my son to this place, and i could'nt asked for more.”

“I went here from 1972 until 1981, from preschool to after school care. My 4 daughters went here as well as my nephews from 1984 to 1990 and from 1996 to 2008. I have such fond memories of all the teachers. I love them. The Ahrens family has created a safe environment. My children are all very successful and excelled in academics which I attribute to their time spent here in this loving but disciplined preschool. I only wish I lived closer so my grandchildren could get the same wonderful experience. I highly recommend this preschool. It is honestly the best in the area!! Hi Ms. Nancy!! And yes she’s the same preschool teacher I had!!”

“My son has been attending Goldenwest Preschool since March 2022, and I am incredibly pleased with the experience. I initially chose this school based on a friend's recommendation, and it has exceeded my expectations. The facility is not only clean and well-organized but also thoughtfully separates kids by age group, considering their educational levels.The three teachers per room setup is a standout feature for me. It provides an extra layer of care and attention for the children. The communication from the staff is excellent, keeping us well-informed about any upcoming events or important updates. When my son was 2 and under Mrs. Jackelyn's care, she made it easy for me to leave him at school with her loving and positive approach.Now, at four years old, my son has three teachers, and Mrs. Rene, with whom I primarily communicate, is equally caring and nurturing. Her balanced approach includes necessary discipline, which I appreciate. I'm particularly impressed that she teaches sign language to the kids, and it's heartwarming to see my son coming home and sharing his newfound knowledge.Mrs. Amy who is the school director, has been immensely helpful, providing information about financial assistance programs. The Christian values instilled in the curriculum, especially the emphasis on love towards God, are of great significance to me. As a pregnant mother, I'm already considering enrolling my upcoming baby in Goldenwest Preschool. The dedication of the entire staff, including many unnamed teachers and faculty, has given me peace of mind while I'm at work, knowing my son is in excellent hands.I am grateful for the positive impact they've had on my son's growth and development.”

“This is a great place for kids.my son come here around 1year.every day is happy,he love to go to school.teacher are all so nice,my son loves Amy teacher.he learn a lot here.and I thing has one thing is great,I can see my son all the time in the school from the camera.”

“My daughter has been coming here since she was a baby. The level of love,compassion and empathy everyone here shows the kids is unmatched. As a mom I could always count on them communicating with me about my child.They helped jumpstart her potty training which was a huge help. My daughter also enjoyed being there with her peers and the staff was always so kind. I valued how much care and love they showed my daughter and celebrating all the kids milestones. They Definitely offer piece of mind even on her first day I was calling throughout the day and they never hesitated to give me updates on how my daughter was doing which was great. I appreciate everyone's help here and helping my daughter meet her milestones.”

“I just want to say that I've had my son at St Johns since we he was two, he is now4 1/2 and he loves coming to school now, when we started two years ago I almost pulled him out because I did not like his morning teachers " Flora and Naomi" everytime I would drop him off one was in a chair and the other would be standing around, I never seen them comfort the children when they were crying, his afternoon teachers were good with him, when the school got their new Director Mrs Bernadette, I noticed alot of things change, for the best, my son got new teachers and the school is doing alot better, we notice all the improvements, all the activities, celebrations and the summer is full of excitement, I can say that the school is better off without those teachers. I would like to thank the current teachers at st Johns for being loving and caring teachers, and also thank Mrs Bernadette for running a great school and wonderful staff, I highly recommend this school. Thank you st Johns staff”

“I was on vacation in California and took my six year old daughter here for a day. She had so much fun exploring, inventing and playing with the other kids.When we woke up the next day, the first thing my daughter said was, “I want to go back to Imaginology.”We had plans to go to Huntington Gardens, but instead we took her back to Imaginology and dropped her off.The adults had a nice day at the gardens and when we went to pick up my daughter from Imaginology she didn’t want to leave.My daughter is usually very shy and anxious around new places and people. The fact that she wanted to go back the next day and was okay with being left there without me speaks volumes.The staff is very friendly and professional.The philosophy and activities at Imaginology changed my life and perspective on parenting/childhood development for the better.I would for sure 10/10 recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun day with their kid.I would also for sure 10/10 recommend this place to anyone looking to learn more about the power of imagination and play. These are such an important concepts to understand in our modern high tech cookie cutter society.If we had one of these in Michigan, we would visit it at least every month.”

“Our experience at PLAY has truly been a dream come true—it’s an amazing preschool that really has it all: exceptional teachers and caregivers, a beautiful campus, flexible offerings, and a diverse and inclusive community. We will cherish our time with Miss Martha, Miss Veronica, and the whole bunch for years to come!The programming at PLAY is incredibly well-rounded and makes room for everything you could want from a preschool experience. Our daughter was given hands-on academic attention, social-emotional encouragement and guidance, and access to a steady stream of inventive activities. She loved going every day, begged to stay as long as she could, and really learned so much.I know there are lots of factors involved when choosing a preschool for our children, but I really respected that PLAY wasn’t trying to be flashy or trendy. They were committed to making sure our child was ready for elementary school in all the ways that mattered most, and we couldn’t be more grateful for everyone who made that possible.”

“My children's second year attending, and every day they are eager to go to school. They absolutely love , care and pray for their teachers. The staff goes above and beyond and respondQuickly when i have questions whether its via email or a phone call. Very organized and they keep the parents up to date with whats going on with ourChildren academically and if they are struggling behavior wise they help. We have grown closer to God as a family and this is a place I call home. Very safe community. God bless!”
